 Hello, welcome back on my YouTube channel. In this video I want to show how to install the semi-automatic classification plugin for QGIS. Since version 8 some dependencies need to be installed first, and I've seen already a lot of questions about that, so therefore this video. One of the most important dependencies that is not by default installed in QGIS is the RemoteEarSense's Python package. This was developed by Luca Congedo for remote sensing analysis using Python. And I think a lot of nice things can be done with that. I haven't explored it myself yet, but there are a lot of nice tutorials here on this blog. I'll share the link in the description of this video. There are several ways to install the dependencies. The easiest way is to go to the OSDO4W installer that corresponds with your installation. And the best way is to open the folder of your installation and run the setup there. You can also run the setup from the start menu, and you can also just search for setup. But if you have multiple installations of QGIS, you might run the wrong setup. You also might need administrator rights to run the setup. In the OSDO4W setup, choose Advanced Install and click Next. Install from internet. Keep the default folder that you are using. Keep the defaults here too. And click Next until you see that you can install the packages. This is also the place where you're going to update your QGIS installation and related packages. So you see here that it automatically suggests to update my QGIS 3.34 and 3.28 to the latest point release. To add packages, I can simply use the search and I search here for remote and I find here the remotey or census package that I'm going to install. If you click on that arrow, you can set it to installing it to this version. In the same way, I can search for other dependencies that I need to install. Another dependency is Scikit Learn. You find the packages always under lips for libraries and here you see Eep. That means that I already have that package installed. If not, you just click on the arrow and install the latest version. For PyTorch, I do the same and there I click on the arrow to install this version of PyTorch. Then I click Next and I can start the installation. When it's done, click Finish and now we can start QGIS. I'll start QGIS 3.34.1 here from the Start menu. You can choose an existing profile or create a new one. Some good practices to create a new profile for remote sensing analysis, which only contains the plugins that you use for remote sensing analysis. In this way, QGIS starts quicker for all the applications that don't need those plugins. With a new profile, QGIS starts with a clean setup. You can go to plugins, manage install plugins and search for the semi-automatic classification plugin and click install plugin. After installation, you find the new panel and icons and click close. Now you're almost set. There's just one setting you need to check. Under the SCP menu, you can find settings and then processing setting and there you can set the available RAM for this plugin and the amount of CPU threads. You can set the RAM to half of the amount of RAM that is available in your system. Although we have installed the latest version available in OSGio4W, we see that here a new version of remote your senses is available, so we're going to update that next. But before we need to shut down QGIS anyways, I'm also going to set the language settings here in this profile, which also needs a reinstall. Now I can use English and the European English settings for decimals etc. Now I close QGIS and I go to the OSGio4W shell. You can also find that from the start menu and you might need to run it as an administrator. Now I run here the command pip3 install upgrade remote your senses and I use the enter key and then it starts updating, which is quite quick. It just gives a warning that I can use a newer version of pip, but that's not so relevant. Then I start QGIS 334 again with the remote sensing profile and then you see that the red message of the version update is gone, so it means we're all set to use the semi-automatic classification plugin in QGIS. I hope this was useful. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel if you want to see updates. Looking forward to see you next time.
